Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Christian Malford?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from Christian Malford

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
